This study examines the factors influencing preservice teachers' (PSTs) technology integration during teaching practice in teacher preparation programs. Utilizing a multidimensional framework, the study integrates models such as TPACK, UTAUT, and the Triple-E evaluation rubric, among others. The research involved a Qualtrics survey of 1,217 PSTs…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of preservice teachers' identity on TPACK regarding the mediating roles of mathematics teaching competency, teacher belief, and technostress across grade levels. A total of 926 preservice mathematics teachers participated in the study. We used structural equation modeling to determine and…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly embedded in daily life, transforming how we process information, analyse data, and communicate. As AI enables new forms of interaction, educators need to assess its implications for teaching and learning. This study examines how AI tools, specifically ChatGPT, were integrated into preservice teacher…

Technology integration in education has a great potential for learning, provided it is based on solid teacher knowledge and pedagogical reasoning. Teacher Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) is deeply connected with non-rational factors such as beliefs and attitudes -- "dispositions" --, together informing behaviours for…

Since 2020, teaching has gone through substantive transformation. Teacher educators have been compelled to reevaluate their instructional strategies and the use of technology to deliver effective training for pre-service teachers. The year 2020 escalated the use of teaching strategies that relied on technology as a crucial tool in all teaching…

Across the globe teachers are increasingly using online communication tools to bring together learners from different countries, and offer them social interaction opportunities to learn a new language or a new skill via Virtual Exchange (VE). While there is some mostly anecdotal evidence of VE on satisfaction and improving language skills, few…

To date, research on the importance of effective and appropriate technology integration to improve teaching and learning in the 21st century classroom, and the preparation of future educators for effective technology integration through their teacher preparation programs, has been focused primarily on those pursuing careers teaching the general…

This study examined how technology integration in teacher training programs affects cultural and linguistic competency development among pre-service instructors. Based on the Cultural Competence Theory and the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge TPACK model, this research utilized a systematic literature review approach to integrate…

The primary objective of the research reported on here was to decide whether a combined framework of the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) and technological pedagogical and content knowledge (TPACK) could be a valid and reliable model to predict Indonesian pre-service science teachers' (PSTs') actual use of technology (AUT) during teaching…

This qualitative exploratory study aimed to examine how preservice teachers constructed unit plans with the assistance of ChatGPT. Due to the constantly evolving landscape of technology and rapid development of Generative AI (GenAI), teacher education programs are compelled to prepare preservice teachers with the necessary skills to integrate…

Modeling is a widely adopted and frequently used strategy to prepare teacher candidates for technology integration. However, whether modeling as a strategy alone is enough for technology-infused teacher preparation programs is questionable. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to describe an investigation of how teacher educators model…

The purpose of this convergent mixed methods study was to explore how an undergraduate educational technology course impacts preservice teachers' TPACK knowledge and how it affects the development of their technology integration repertoire. A total of 14 preservice teachers enrolled in a face-to-face section of an educational technology course in…

Teacher burnout can have negative consequences for both the teacher and the school environment. In this study, a quantitative, correlational approach was used to examine teacher burnout in relation to their proficiency in technology-integrated instruction. The study aims to investigate whether there is a connection between a teacher's ability to…

This study is purposed to implement and test a praxeological learning approach to enhance pre-service EFL teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge and online information-seeking skills. This study was conducted based on a convergent parallel mixed design involving thirty-seven sophomore pre-service EFL teachers. Multiple data…

Convincing teacher educators of the need to integrate information and communication technologies (ICTs) in their classrooms has become a less arduous task in the post-pandemic era since educational institutions were forced to shift to emergency remote delivery in early 2020. As a result, it has become very significant that pre-service teachers are…
